That's just the style of the Thompson stem I had on hand. That stem is tougher than the 3TT I had earlier and the Ovalmaster has a reputation for being a clydesdale bike.

Nope, the fork and spacers are 1" and the stem 1 1/8". The bike came with a shim and I had to substitute a smaller carbon fiber spacer for one of the blue ones. I want to keep the bars as high as possible.

If you look closely you'll see the chain grease I left on the right side by the bar end - to keep it real.
